Xbox 360 to hit 2m in UK 'next week'

From gamesindustry.biz: [QUOTE] The Xbox 360 is on course to record 2 million sales in the UK next week, according to Chart-Track. Boosted by the recent official price cut and bumper Easter sales period, Microsoft's console hits the milestone in the midst of a fierce scrap with Sony's rival PlayStation 3 in the key European territory.
The Xbox 360 launched in the UK in December 2005 and reached 1 million sales after 60 weeks. Sony announced that PlayStation 3, which launched in the UK last March, had sold through 1 million units by February of this year. According to Microsoft, the Xbox 360 has sold around 18 million units worldwide since launch. [/QUOTE]
